Canadian design firm Futurestudio has created the interiors of a new Othership location in New York City. Following two of Toronto's locations, this marks the first Othership launch in New York. The inspiration of the design is rooted in a deep and earthy palette paired together with ambient lighting to heighten the experience. It features sauna immersions and ice baths with an amphitheater tea lounge where guests can unwind around a central fireplace and socialize with one another.
McQuaid Mitchell shares, "At Othership, every element harmonises to support the founders' vision of redefining wellness through immersive and connecting experiences." CEO and co-founder of Othership, Robert Bent shares "As a society, we're starting to think much more about how much our emotional state impacts not only our physical health, but day-to-day life. Othership's unique take on hot and cold therapy has helped over 200,000 people de-stress and transform their relationships."
